Use the Machining centre transfer parameters to set up a group of machines. At a blank line:-

 

- Enter the transfer name

- Select 'Group transfer'

- Enter the names of the transfers and other settings.

 

The Group transfer option should be the last option in the list because everything entered below the 'Group transfer' line is part of the group transfer. Enter any single transfer options first.

 

Where the same transfer type appears as a single option and within the group the transfers must have a different name.

 

The name chosen  for the group transfer e.g. 'Multiple transfer' appears in the Machining Interface menu options at the Main screen.
